Analysis and improvement of the methods used for performance assessing of 4G network with NB-IoT technology for three scenarios of spectrum use in the 900 MHz range

摘要

This article provides an example of a simulation developed in the U-Net Planning Tool environment for researching the application of the effectiveness of various scenarios of using the radio frequency spectrum in 4G mobile networks in the provision of Internet of Things services. A new methodology for testing the NB-IoT network presented, as well as presented conclusions and recommendations for choosing the most optimal scenario for deploying NB-IoT based on the obtained data.
